Abstract
Acmoxanthones A-E (1-5), five new lavandulylated xanthones, were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum acmosepalum, together with four known xanthones. Their structures with absolute configurations were elucidated on the basis of analysis of MS, NMR and chiroptical properties. A bioassay against high glucose-induced damage on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) showed ananixanthone (6) and osajaxanthone (7) had potential antioxidative damage activity with EC50 values of 10.5 μg/mL and 7.6 μg/mL, respectively, while 3-hydroxy-2,4-dimethoxyxanthone (8) exhibited cytotoxic effect on the damaged cells with IC50 values of 7.1 μg/mL.
